Back to work on the 3 rotor!!!

I finally got back to working on my conversion... Its been 3 years since I started the 3 rotor swap, lol. I was stupid and built other cars in the mean time (silvia and another 3rd gen)... I'm going to focus on the 3 rotor now and hopefully have it done by summer.

I painted the engine bay to match the outside of the car. Also, I pulled all of the wiring inside of the car and am going to run extensions to the headlights, blinkers, etc to keep it nice and clean in the engine bay. The fenders, headlights, and bumper are not bolted.. I just placed them there for the pic . Sorry for the crappy camera phone pics.

I like the bumper, but I think it would have looked better painted black or a dark metal flake. To each his own.

yea... i know about the bumper... it was on the car 5 years ago and I thought it looked good back then. I almost left it off for the picture because I knew the response it would get, lol. It won't be on the car when it's on the road.

lol, I know it has to go... I hate it also! My other rx7 is for sale... As soon as that's gone I will completely focus on finishing this one! I need to get some pics of the roll cage I installed also (6pt autopower) once I'm done rewiring the interior and stripping off the sound deadening.

DaYam, when was the last time you saw a Veilside Combat kit?
Is that thing original?
